Floating Homes Limited (a specialist floating construction company) have engaged Baca Architects to develop their new 2015/16 range of floating homes. Inspired by narrow boat and canal living, the ‘Chichester’ model provides a split-level, open-plan residence, creating a spacious and luxurious interior. Generous full-height windows provide views and access to water level, allowing residents to enjoy all the benefits of a waterside lifestyle. Each floating home will be constructed using a lightweight Structurally Insulated Panel System (SIPS) and then clad in an external rain screen selected from the pattern book. At a starting price of £150k plus VAT, including interior fit-out and delivery but excluding mooring fees, The ‘Chichester’ offers an appealing lifestyle in either urban or countryside settings.
